I set up a freshly new mailserver with: - qmail 1.03-r16 - vpopmail 5.4.16 - clamav 0.88.2 - spamassassin 1.35-r1 - qmailadmin 1.2.1-r1 and it is applies for qmailadmin 1.2.9 from ~x86 The problem is that adding user via qmailadmin gives "Error: could not change to directory" and user is not added. Permissions are set from the current qmailadmin ebuild ms1 # ls -l /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/qmailadmin -rws--s--x 1 vpopmail vpopmail 184376 Jun 1 23:45 /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/qmailadmin When I changed this file to root:root It started to work normaly. But I think having root:root permissions is not very good idea at cgi-bin file. As I have build many mailservers on the gentoo platform and every of them are to recent days performing without this kind of problem with the same sw versions, imho it must be some issue with directory rights of some package. However all known directories and files from mentioned packages which I have compared to older installed servers have the same rights. It must be something another. Please have a look.

Performed more debug on other servers. It is behaving also on older - updated machines. Last functional configuration: - vpopmail 5.4.13 - qmailadmin 1.2.1
With permissions of 6755 on vpopmail:vpopmail owned qmailadmin it seems functional. Consider to revise the qmailadmin ebuild in next releases...
